2024 Olympia Results

[ashenlmao]

Wondering what y'all think of this years results? In my opinion, Derek's performance was unexpected, but I'm happy for Samson and felt his look was solid this year. Hadi coming after Samson made sense for me as the show went on. It felt like Samson was getting harder as he posed.
As for classic, Chris taking the win was pretty clear. Mike taking second was really cool though, he brought a really good package this year and I'm excited to see next year's lineup with Chris retiring. Speaking of which, the man certainly has set some standards for classic, and his victory and retirement are well deserved with his new kid. I admired his speech this year and his dedication to his family.

The stage was kind of distracting and the lighting wasn't ideal for some of the darker guys- at least on the stream. Andrew and Breon not getting their music was a massive flop, and disappointing as I always look forward to Breon's posing, and while he kept his routine together, it wasn't as good as it would have been with the music. Not sure if their music was profane or what happened, but there should have been coordination and communication from the Olympia team.

Stoked for Samson. Equally surprised about Derek. Not surprised about Chris, he was looking amazing the last couple weeks. Was hoping Wesley would place better.

As for my opinions about how people looked at the show, I have none, I couldn't fucking make out anything.

I was also hoping Wesley would place better, though people were saying around the Arnold that he only beat Ramon because Ramon was off. He had fun with it though, and he took his placing well and respectfully.

Not a big fan of Wesley’s physique to be quite honest it’s never appealed to me. A little to blocky in tthe sense of wide ribs and lagging lower body
